Understanding Your Englewood Parenting Time Rights

Colorado family courts recognize every parent’s right to have a relationship with their child. However, all cases are different and while, in some cases, an equal, 50/50 schedule might be appropriate, there may be factors in others leading to less, or even restricted time. C.R.S. 14-10-124 sets for the standards a court must consider when determine custody and child visitation orders. C.R.S. 14-10-129 sets for the standards the bases for modifying those orders down the road. Understanding the factors involved in determining the “best interest” standard is only part of the equation. The court process centers around evidence. As such, knowing what matters and how to present your case to the court is critical. Along the way, our lawyers will employ their experience to determine what’s needed to make sure your concerns are considered by the court. Of course, we will also be there to advise you as to all of your settlement options, too.

Some cases may require use of a child and custody expert, such as a Child and Family Investigator, appointed pursuant to C.R.S. 14-10-116.5. Issuance of a well written CFI report, which includes not only expert opinion but also the wishes and concerns of your children, can make the difference when it comes time to trying your case in court, or settling it beforehand.
